Oreo, how lovely would that be, to spread largesse and make everyone happy with real random acts of kindness and generosity.

Karmalady, well done! We all need to try and live a little bit more for the day, tomorrow doesn’t always come for some of us.

Well it’s the thought that counts dogsmother 🤗

Well, I;d probably have to put more money to it , But I'd buy a new telly...one where the picture doesn't crack up when there's a strong wind..

I don’t need anything, I’d increase my donations to local charities.

Is it the tv itself or the tv aerial that is the problem?

I've got a standard (probably considered old-fashioned style) tv and had a traditional type tv aerial on the roof when I bought this house. Cue for a recent particularly bad storm and it messed up my tv reception totally.

What it was was the roof aerial had been broken by the storm and I needed a new aerial. Someone suggested my replacement one be inside the loft and with a booster on it. Cue for that's what I had done and I need an adjacent electric socket to my tv one (for that booster). Fortunately I have that. So that's what I have now.

At least it doesn't now matter to me what the wind in this area gets up to - as my replacement tv aerial can't be "got at" by it.

So your tv is probably perfectly okay per se - but do check out your aerial.

NB; Re the tv and its aerial. I can't recall the exact price of sorting the situation out - as I had to pay the tv guy to do the booster and new aerial in loft bit and he refused to get the old aerial down from the roof (it's a bungalow!!!!) and I had to get "another workman" (who turned out to be my plumbers young apprentice) to shimmy across the roof and take down the broken old aerial. Between the two of them I "think" it cost me about £225.

Put it towards some lovely shoes from Toast .

Pub walk with a couple of friends snd lunch on me.

A small stone bench to go outside my front door - for sitting on sometimes and chatting with passers-by, but mainly so I can do my laces up without kneeling down in my tiny hall.
It would be a real luxury item for me.

A trip to Rigby and Peller

A new pair of slippers andxa new top (not Christmassy) to wear at Christmas.

Yes. Woman after my own heart.

A new plant for my garden, delivered and already potted up so all I need to do is admire and enjoy looking at it. Probably a wisteria.

I don’t need anything but always fancied a trug. I usually carry the veg in by hand. Don’t know why I’ve never got around to buying one. Now, where’s that garden brochure…?

Cruise dress that doesn’t come from eBay.

Maybe plants for my garden or some Clarins skin products.

My £200 WFA goes towards a delivery of heating oil.

An unexpected £100 would cover the balance.

I’d put it towards a ticket for a really good seat for the Royal Ballet at Covent Garden.
